"Oh They Say When You Marry In June..."

Ok, so I'm actually getting married in July, but hey!! Guess what Internet?!!? In case you DON'T have a Facebook... I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!

This post is only.... 2 months late, so I feel like that's not a bad record for me... really... although I probably should have said something about Christmas. I like Christmas. A LOT. And I have a ton of interesting customs due to the fact that my family is Swedish and we're super into our culture and....

.... this has nothing to do with getting married.

But, yeah! I'm getting married. "I'm in love, I'm in love, and I don't care who knows it!" (Kudos if you get the quote. ...ok, I'll just spoon feed it to you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V8tMK68M7U) His name is Luke and this summer, I'm getting a new last name. His last name. That'll be.... interesting. Not that I mind, or anything. It sounds like fun! It's just going to be strange to get a new driver's license, and to have to write my checks differently. They're going to look all funny for a looong time...

Right now, We're just focusing on wedding planning. We're actually both really excited, which I didn't think was possible. But I'm glad! It makes my life easier.

I'm also learning to use 'we' for things instead of 'I' (For the record, I only used 'I' at the beginning because you don't know him -- just me.)

Wedding planning and wedding-y things brings a whole new genre to My Life Is a Musical. THE WEDDING GENRE!!! Ok, so it's not TECHNICALLY a genre, but there are still a whole plethora of musicals containing countless songs about getting married:

Get Me to The Church On Time -- My Fair Lady
June Bride -- Seven Brides For Seven Brothers
I Feel Pretty -- West Side Story (Well, she's wearing a wedding dress, anyway!!)

..I'm sure there are many more, but It's getting late. I should be off to sleep.

More on weddings later! I just had to proclaim it to the world!!! (Officially... again.)
